Tottenham Hotspur are preparing a move for Xavi Hernandez, and it will be interesting to see if he is willing to take over at the London club.
They have sacked Thomas Frank and identified the 46-year-old as a target, as per Fichajes. He has previously performed well at Barcelona and helped them win the title. He could prove to be an excellent acquisition for Tottenham. His attacking style of play could be ideal for the London club.
Thomas Frank received substantial backing from the club hierarchy in the market, but he has failed to get the best out of the team. Spurs have shown relegation form in recent months, and the club needed to make a change. It remains to be seen whether they can bring in the right manager now. They have been linked with multiple managers over the last few days, and it remains to be seen who they end up with.
Xavi is currently unemployed and may be interested in managing the Premier League. Tottenham have the resources to build a quality team, and the 46-year-old will be tempted to join them if there is a proposal on the table. It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds.
Spurs need a fresh start
Tottenham were expected to secure Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign and do well in the competitions. Instead, they are closer to the relegation zone than the top four in the Premier League right now. It will be interesting to see whether they can bring in a manager to help them turn things around. They need to bounce back strongly. A club of their stature should be pushing for every season. Instead, they are fighting for survival right now.
Xavi has played for an elite club throughout his career, and he knows what it takes to manage one as well. This could be the ideal opportunity for him as well. It will be interesting to see if the two parties can finalise an agreement quickly.
